Old man Qi's scalp went numb just thinking about it, and he wished he could slap himself in the face.
"Bao'er, dear, what should we do now?" If you agree, you can't just turn around and drive the person away, right?
What's more, if they don't want Erniu's family, no one will want them. Four of them, plus one in the belly, are five lives.
This time it was Qi Bao'er's turn to roll her eyes, jump off the kang which was about the same height as her, and run out of the house with a bang.
"Just keep it, I'll go to the nursery and have a look."
What else to do?
She just hoped that the little old man would stop being so kind on the road ahead.
"Dad, have you put everything away?" Qi Bao'er lay on the cellar door and poked his head in.
Her father was not inside, and the food and vegetables had been put into sacks and tied up. The mother and son were preparing to carry them out. The second uncle was squatting, and Nai and the fourth uncle were lifting the sacks and putting them on the second uncle's back.
"Hey, you'll be out soon. Bao'er, get out of the way first so that your second uncle can go out. Your father said there was something hidden in the mountains, so he went to get it."
"Oh." Qi Bao'er dodged a little.
Their family is really lucky. At least if the journey goes well, they won't be hungry in the near future.
After the harvest every year, their family would sell most of the grain, especially the wheat produced in fertile fields, and sell it in exchange for other coarse grains. The exchange would not be much, just enough for a few months.
Although we sold a lot last year, we didn't sell as much as in previous years. Just saving some food was enough for the family for half a year.
The fine grains are not sold per kilogram. This is for the baby. This baby talks about the delicate food in her stomach. From the time she can eat complementary food, it is coarse food that cannot be put into her mouth. If she is forced to eat it and enters her stomach, she will get sick.
Let me show you how to burn it.
However, Lao Qi's family can be called a refined grain company. They only have two bags of wheat from fertile fields ground into flour. Mrs. Tian and Qi Antai each carried a bag out. Then Mrs. Tian asked Qi Antai to put the rice down and return it to the cellar.
Go and carry it, and as soon as the person leaves, she and Qi Baoer wink and signal her to put it away quickly.
Qi Bao'er also blinked at her and disappeared with a touch.
When Qi Kangtai came out carrying another batch of corn kernels, he was surprised to see that the ground where he had put the flour was empty. His second brother hadn't come back yet, and his mother had also gone back to the cellar. Where was the noodles?
It couldn't have been Bao'er who carried it out, right?
Qi Baoer raised her head and looked at him cutely, "My master came here just now and said he would protect us on the way. The flour master also hid. But the master can't bring too many things, so he can only help with two bags of flour."
Hey, there really is a master!
However, Bao'er, the master, is too realistic. He only helps to get the most precious flour that belongs to Bao'er. As expected, Bao'er is only the master of Bao'er.
Qi Kangtai pursed his lips and walked away. He felt a little hurt. Why didn't he have a master who liked him and wanted to accept him as his disciple?
Don't tell me, there is an expert master behind Bao'er. If there is something unlucky, if something happens on the road, Bao'er's master will definitely save Bao'er.
But that may not be the case for people like them.
Packing up the belongings has nothing to do with Bao'er, I don't want her anywhere.
She wandered back to the kitchen, where her mother and several aunts were busy in the kitchen, making cakes, steaming buns, and preparing convenient meals for the road.
This family really cared for her. There was a big pot boiling eggs, and there were two big wooden basins on the ground next to them that had already been boiled. On the other side, the third aunt was still washing eggs, which added up to four to five hundred.
Nai and her mother hurriedly went to change it, but he told her to keep it and eat it slowly on the way. The uncles and aunts all knew that it was prepared for her, and no matter what they thought in their hearts, at least they were all okay with it.
"Why are you here, Bao'er? Go back to the house quickly. It's too hot in here and it's crowded." Ye Sanni waved her hand to chase people away. The kitchen of Lao Qi's house used to be quite big, but now the three sisters-in-law are crowded in, and there are still a lot of people.
There were prepared and uncooked food on the table, and it was difficult for them to turn around.
"Oh." Qi Bao'er withdrew decisively. It was indeed hot. All four stoves were burning. When he put his head in, he felt that his hair was standing up.
Standing at the door of the kitchen, watching the family members running around, including the newly arrived Qian's father, Qian's mother, and aunt, they were all helping to clean up. It seemed that she was particularly idle and useless.
Turning around, she saw that even her two cousins were dragging her out with a hoe, making her look even more useless.
Qi Baoer made a decisive decision and went back to the house to lie down.
If she doesn't get in the way, she is helping the most. How about she try dragging a hoe? Do you believe that the whole family will drop what they are doing to teach her a lesson?
Qi Baoer is a big-hearted person. To be more precise, she is a heartless person. The nervousness, worries and fears of people outside, including her family, have no impact on her at all, and they will not prevent her from sleeping.
She felt the bed shaking in a daze. When she opened her eyes, she saw that they were all densely packed with people holding torches. At this moment, she was being held in the arms of her biological father, Qi Kang'an.
Qi Kang'an felt that she was moving and quickly pressed down the quilt wrapped around her to prevent the wind from getting in.
"Bao'er is awake? Don't be afraid. We have been out of the village for a while. If it's okay, you can sleep on daddy."
Qi Baoer looked behind him, then turned to look ahead.
At midnight, although there were torches held by several people, we still couldn't see the exact number of people. We could only see that there weren't many torches in front of us, and we couldn't see the torches behind us.
"Dad, is our family opening the way?"
"No, it's because you have an uncle's family, and our family is ranked fifth."
"The whole village walks together?"
"No, but most of them are. Some of the ones left behind do not believe that King Xuan can really massacre people, and some want to wait for their relatives to leave together. There are about a hundred households here, with about a thousand people." Basically, they are all clan members, or clan members.
Big business here.
"so much?"
"Ours is not a large number. It will be called a large number when the town announces it tomorrow. There are nearly 20,000 people in the town, and there are also nearly 20,000 people in the surrounding villages. They all fled on the same day. Think about the number of people.
"
"Are they all the same way?"
"There is only one road going north in this section. There are several roads after passing Sanhe Town, but there is only one spacious official road. We will have to discuss which way is safer."
Their heads are now stuck in their belts, and they have to be careful and cautious every step they take.
Not to mention Sanhe Town, even entering Sanhe Town is risky. Who knows if Sanhe Town has also received the news and is there any chaos in the town?
There are nearly a thousand of them, all dragging their belongings with them. It looks like they are moving their entire families. Are they allowed to enter Sanhe Town?
If you are not allowed in, you have to turn around, but if you turn around, you have to go into the mountains.
Alas, sad.
"Where are grandma, grandma and the others?"
She saw her second uncle and his family. They were all behind her father. She turned to look at them. The second uncle and her second aunt were smiling at her. The seventh brother in his arms was making faces at her. What a little kid.
The feeling of sadness.
The third uncle probably hasn't come back yet, and the third aunt doesn't know where he is. The fourth uncle and San Lang are on the opposite side of the cart, Qian's father is also there, and Qian's mother doesn't know where she is.
